Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon Water Park is a family-friendly attraction best known for the Typhoon Lagoon Surf Pool—the largest of its kind in North America (expect waves reaching up to 6 feet high). It features a mix of other attractions, including thrill rides like Mayday Falls and Crush ‘n’ Gusher, as well as all-ages attractions like Castaway Creek and Miss Adventure Falls. You can visit Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon Water Park independently of other Disney theme parks, or try to sample a little bit of everything with the Park Hopper® Plus ticket.
The most convenient and cost-friendly way to get to Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon Water Park depends on where you’re staying. Those staying at a Walt Disney World® Resort hotel can take the Walt Disney World Water Transportation or Walt Disney World Bus Transportation directly to the park. Guests staying off-property will find it easiest to arrive by car. Florida’s Interstate 4 and SR 429 each have exits that lead into Walt Disney World® Resort.
Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon Water Park’s hours vary by season, though the summer months will see the highest number of daily visitors. Because of Central Florida’s strong heat and summer afternoon thunderstorms, it’s best to arrive as early as possible so you can maximize your time comfortably under the sun. If you’re park hopping, it’s smart to visit another park first (such as Magic Kingdom® Park to beat the long queues) then spend the late afternoon splashing it up at Typhoon Lagoon.
Swimming in the Sunshine State is still fun under the moonlight, thanks to Typhoon Lagoon’s seasonal Disney H2O Glow After Hours events. On select nights, you can spend three hours swimming and splashing after the water park closes to the general public. These limited-capacity events feature a DJ dance party, colorful lights, shorter wait times for attractions, and special visits from beloved Disney characters. Plus, snacks are included in the ticket price.
